SEÑORITA MARIPOSA: RESOURCE TO INTRODUCE BUTTERFLY MIGRATION

I couldn’t have gotten this book at a better time! With the monarch butterfly migration heading south, this book is the perfect way to introduce it. Señorita Mariposa was written by Mister G, Latin GRAMMY award-winning children’s musician who currently lives in Massachusetts. Señorita Mariposa is a short but engaging bilingual picture book. The story is catchy and truly represents the journey of the super generation of monarch butterflies. In this book, Señorita Mariposa is traveling south in search of a warmer place. While making the journey south, Señorita Mariposa brings joy to many lives. While reading the book, the reader can easily put him or herself in Señorita Mariposa’s shoes (very small shoes!) and feel what she goes through while she embarks on her journey.

The book’s illustrations are appealing, and many readers will be able to see themselves represented in them. In the book, Señorita Mariposa travels through different landscapes to show and prove how strong a little butterfly can be. Señorita Mariposa is a beautiful tribute to the monarch butterfly.

After reading the book with your students, I would suggest you and your classes join the Symbolic Butterfly Migrationhosted annually by the organization Journey North. What a great way to send many paper butterflies to accompany Señorita on her journey.

Señorita Mariposa was just released, and it’s now available on Amazon. It would definitely make a great addition to your school or classroom library!
